BlueRazor 1,147 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Yes Gate City has some speed ! Herron may very well be the fastest player on the field for this game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkeyeDan 20 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Well we will see. I don't think the crowd will have any affect on the knights. Should be a good game. Jason 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkeyeDan 20 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I really doudt that kid will be the fastest man on the field. If he is so be it but we have some 4.3 / 4.2 (guys) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkeyeDan 20 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I have heard different about being slow. I just cant see them overall matching our speed. I know Gate City is a Good Football team there tradition and track record proves it. I know that Gate City can win this game but I also know that we are not your typical # 7 seed team.

BiGBiLL 17 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Agreed Jason...I really don't know how we have gotten this far. GC has definitely overachieved this year. I just hope we don't get embarrassed Saturday. Jason 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roba22 11 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 A home playoff game on Saturday at GC will bring out all the other local football fans too. Tennessee Playoff games are on fridays nights and UT plays late saturday night so that will bring many locals out too who are just coming to see a good game. The line will start early and the seats will fill up fast. another thing no one mentioned was the rows of fans standing along the track. I have seen it three deep and standing room only. I have seen HS playoff games all across the the south and the atmosphere at Gate City is as much fun as I have ever been too. I will be there ready for a good game. Not going to get into "hows better them how" as that will be decided on the field. Just hoping its a good hard fought game and the teams decided it. Go Big Blue!!!

HawkeyeDan 20 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Agreed that online message board key board chat don't win or loose games. It fun to talk it up as Fans state our Opinions...... It helps make Sat. get here faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendatLegion 109 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I hope we have a crowd like that, everyone knew what to expect last week and it being 18 degrees kept a lot of the "older" folks away, and apparently a lot of the younger folks. I expect a little different atmosphere Saturday. GC with a win Tuesday against Luray will be in the Volleyball state final again Saturday so that will knock a few folks out of the crowd, but most will stay to watch the football game and not travel to Richmond.

BlueRazor 1,147 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I never said anything about overall speed. All I stated was Gate City had some speed also and that #7 may very well be the fastest on the field. He can run! You guys probably will be faster overall and I never said you wouldn't be. You stated your opinion and I stated mine. Now the 4.2/4.3 forty is just out of this world if that's true and I'm not saying it isn't. If that is true you all have something that nobody else in the nation has! In the history of the NFL combine there has only been 8 players to ever be clocked in the 4.2"s. So that is very special and no way Gate City has that kind of speed.

BlueRazor 1,147 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Hawkeye by the way I am a Richlands man not Gate City Blue. I just know the team pretty good and have all the respect in the world for them. I expect it to be a great game and a great atmosphere like I sated earlier. I do wish you guys safe travels and a great time. Once again welcome to the board and SWVA !

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Pals is one of my favorites. Cant go wrong with Hob Nob but its a little out of the way for someone staying in Kingsport. Hawkeye, Hob Nob is West of GC on 870. Its a typical Mom n Pop burger joint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
